Researching non-linearity by referencing Conway’s Game of Life – a zero-player game in which evolution is determined by its initial state. Rules determine the outcome of the image. An original web-text and its hyperlinked levels of secondary information are visualised: layered, daily disturbances depicting our non-linear manner of reading as an outcome of technological developments.

Information — Knowledge, research on (spatial) memory. Autonomous research and installation. Department Nomination. Graphic Design, Royal Academy of Art. Editions of 1.
( 2 013)
Researching the distance between information and knowledge. In an age of reliance, how to consciously possess knowledge? Grasping memory through the elements of space, orientation and time.
By using the language of graphic design as a tool to remember, the input is translated step-by-step to a more memorable form - the large amount of information is reduced to its minimum, its framework. A conscious process is made from information to knowledge. The part of our brain, the Hippocampus, which transforms short-term memories into long-term is also responsible for our spatial orientation — emphasising the importance of location (ref: memory palace). To appeal to this associative, relational nature of our memory, the information is approached in the same manner. By appointing it specific locations and connecting related elements, linearity is dismantled. Visual overviews are created entailing complete underlying structures in one glance. By reducing the amount of ‘what to think of first’, there is a greater chance that the fundamental part is securely set in the mind, causing more and more association paths to be triggered, to the more elaborate version. Derived from a personal form of time-space synaesthesia.
